Summary: Excellent Resource for Teachers!
Comment: This book, a collection of essays and transcripts of speeches that stemmed from a writing conference, is loaded with great ideas and is a comprehensive resource. The essays address pedagogical issues surrounding censorship and student choice in the classroom, but also include very practical information like ideas for activities, discussions of different popular novels for adolescents, and professional guidelines for educators. But it's also incredibly entertaining - King's included keynote address is wry and intelligent and tackles tough questions about censorship in the classroom. The book should also be commended for how much space it devotes to the inclusion of the adolescent perspective, including, for example, transcripts of a roundtable discussion among students and teachers. Reading Stephen King is immensely helpful for English teachers, and a great read!
